The connector comprises at least three connecting elements are divided into at least two plug segments. The plug segments may be arranged in different configurations in which dimensions are different in order to allow the connector to be passed through a hollow shaft. Said different configurations of the plug segments may be obtained by having the plug segments pivotable to each other. - However, this solution involves the use of pivotable plug segments which renders the connector complex involving a great modification on the connector.
- An automotive electrical wiring connector is disclosed herein which it has been found to be simple for insertion through a small opening such as a hollow shaft, and effective as it can keep the standard connection configuration.
- The present connector comprises a body having at least one receiving portion for receiving an electrical conductor end of a cable. The might be for example three receiving portions for three cables. The electrical conductor end of the cables is intended to be connected to corresponding electrical conductor ends of another cables.
- The body of the present connector comprises a lid for covering the electrical conductor receiving portion. The lid may be hinged to the connector body.
- The lid is suitable to be in several positions:
- at least one operating position in which the lid is closed to the body. In this operating position, the lid itself retains the at least one electrical conductor therein and in turn it also retains the connector body through the small opening; and
- at least one non-operating position in which the lid is open. In this non-operating position, the lid itself allows the at least one electrical conductor to be accessed and released.
- In some embodiments of the present connector, the lid may be suitable to be at least in a third additional position:
- at least one intermediate position. In such intermediate position, the lid substantially protrudes from the body such that it retains the at least one electrical conductor therein and capable of being flexed when passing through the small opening.
- The body of the connector may further comprise at least one lateral elastic leg, such as for example two, arranged at opposite sides of the body. Such at least one lateral elastic leg may have an inclined portion suitable for facilitating insertion of the connector body inside the small opening.
- It is preferred that the body of the lid includes at least one flange. Said flange is adapted to be coupled to a coupling portion of the connector body in order to retain the lid in the above mentioned operating position or in the above mentioned intermediate position.
- Said coupling portion may comprise a body provided with at least two projections. Such projections project outwards into at least one corresponding hollow portion formed in the flange for defining said lid operating and intermediate positions.
- In some embodiments of the connector, the lid may include an inner retaining portion. Said inner retaining portion may protrude inwards for retaining the at least one electrical conductor fitted therein in at least one of the above mentioned lid operating position and lid intermediate position. In addition, the lid may include an outer retaining portion. Said outer retaining portion may protrude outwards for retaining the connector body in at least one of the above mentioned lid operating position and lid intermediate position.
- The above described connector is efficient for insertion through a small opening such as a hollow shaft, and effective as it can keep the standard connection configuration. The connector dimensions and its alignment on the connection area are not affected because the connector body does not suffering from structural modifications. In use, the above described connector is easy to fit and insert and it has been shown to provide improved safety as the lid provides extra retention both the connector body and the cable terminals avoiding the connector from coming out of the opening, shaft, etc.
- Additional objects, advantages and features of embodiments of the present connector disclosed herein will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon examination of the description, or may be learned by practice thereof.
- Particular embodiments of the present connector will be described in the following by way of non-limiting examples, with reference to the appended drawings, in which:
-
Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the present connector fitted inside a hollow shaft; -
